The oil Will accumulate in the pan 20 and ',burn, but will soon heat the upper end of the f pipe 1], and especially the thick dome 14,

sr ll iciently to vaporize the oil as it passes out of the pipe l1, and thereafter the oil will not flow more than one-half of the waydown the dome 14 be'f'ore it is vaporized. The air for supplying oxygen comes in a considerable quantity through thc openings 23 and passes.` upward Within the casing 25 and is dellected b v it in against the dome and there mixed The most ol the vapor during' combustion passes upward from the' dome, although there is a tendency of a portion of it to pass down through the little openings 16,'

surrounding the base ol the dome, which increases the heatof the dome and of the air approaching the dome and promotes the admixture of air and vapor Within the casing 25. The flame passing upward from the dome strikes the top and is delectcd laterings 32 at the ends of the chamber 30. W ith this arrangement of the chamber 3() the further, final, and complete admixture of air and gas is elfectedin said chamber, so that all the gas is consumed and a si'nokeless llame issues through the openings and ou tlets from said chamber. Il it is desired to heat the' oven of the stove, the damper 39 is moved to the position shown in Fig'. 1, so that the flame rushes out rearward through the opening-s 38 directlyY against the oven; but when the'oven is not in use said damper is closed, which causes all of the llame to pass upward. i

What I claim as in v invention, and desire to secure by Letters' Patent, is"

An oil-burner comprising means for supplying oil thereto, a dome surrounding the outlet over which oil m ay flow, a series of upwardl' \fextending open tubular projections surrounding'y the base of the dome, an oil-pan with a series oi' upwardly-e1\"tendin(br open tubular projections for the admission of air, a

casing surrounding' saidv dome contracted at its upper end to form a chamber between it and the dome, a mixing-chamber above said dome provided with outlet-openings in the top and sides thereof, a damper for closing( the side openings, a removable cap l'or closintr the top opening over said dome, and de* ilectors over the other -top openings, substantially as set Jforth.

In witness whereof l havehereunto al'lxed mysignature in the presence of the witnesses herein named.
